JAY Z DOES IT

Evening everyone, how are you?

Any of you who were at Glastonbury/sat at home watching it on telly last weekend will, no doubt, now know three things:

one) All bands are rubbish.
two) Except Jay-Z.
three) The only real way to headline the biggest festival in the world is to mumble along a bit to something that sounds like Wonderwall and then start shouting your head off over the top of Back in Black.

Hell, here at Wolfpack towers we've known this stuff for years. Long before the Hov levelled Glastonbury's baying fields your Wolfpack of One was dropping exactly the same sort of lyrical science all over London's more urm... intimate venues. (See below.)



Granted, I might not have provided one of the most pivotal moments in hip hop history (seriously, in twenty years time, people will still be talking about Jay Z playing Glastonbury in the same reverential way they do Dylan going electric) but I didn't half melt some faces in the back room of the local Slug and Slowdive.

I guess I should be cross. Half of my set has been wiped out in one roc-a-fella swoop. Strangely, though, I feel sort of vindicated - pleased that it wasn't just us who had such a stupid idea, and delighted that it kicked so much ass. Christ alone knows what I'm going to do at my London 12-Bar Club show next Wednesday 9 July now though - why don't you come along and find out?

The show is promoted by our excellent friends at Blang! It's a fiver in, I'm on at a reasonable eight fifteen, and the address is: The 12 Bar Club*, Denmark Street, London WC2H 8NL (UK) The nearest tube is Tottenham Court Road Station.

Also on the bill are my excellent friends: Knudt Tourette (from Stockholm) Seargent Buzfuz (from Stoke Newington) and the Argonauts (nope, no idea). Here's what the papers are saying about us:

WOLFPACK OF ONE - Return of the popular entertainer with a voice like a crowd and a one-man stadium hip-hop folk show which is both piss-take and homage. Riveting and utterly charming.

(astonishingly I didn't even write that myself - see you there?)

lots of love

Andrew Wolfpack

*Oddly, the 12 Bar Club only has one actual bar, but that'll do, right?

SHOW!
